Just thought I would pop some pics up of Occy with his camera fitted.
Still getting to grips with how it works but it's fun. The harness is for humans but fits him well. I have had to use a couple of extension pieces to try and get it over his head.
I did pop one video of a biking expedition but hopefully will be making another one soon.
Day 1 of Occys GoPro adventures has concluded. I have ended up with a two minute video clip of me fitting the camera to Oc. Then nothing. A technical error on my behalf. If nothing else he ran round with it on and didn't loose the camera in the forest. The camera also took some knocks against trees and posts and has survived. I'm not convinced the human harness is completely suitable. The camera spent quite a lot of time hanging to the side during out exercise. My neighbour has advised me in "horse land" to keep the saddle in a set position they sometimes use leather shammies. That may be a possibility.
You can get dog harnesses for them. This one fits a large (48kg) giant. The fasteners are rubbish though and need replacing immediately. This works fine with my Xiaomi Yi camera but I believe it is usable for GoPros too.
I recently bought two beautiful harnesses from m and b harnesses uk... http://mbdogharnesses.co.uk/catalog/59" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The work was fine and Martin will work wth you to make you whatever you want...
Tell him Josephine in Italy recommended you,lol,it will help my street cred.
Seriously..you need a more stable pad on the shoulders to keep the camera from slipping.also maybe a higher strut to get the dogs head from obscuring the images.
. Will be interesting to see some of his adventures!
